Comforts for Fighters. CHEERFUL LETTERS. The following are extracts from letters re- ceived by R.S.M. Fear from men serving abroad in acknowledgment of parcels :— Stoker L. Gurney, R.N.—Just a line to thank you for the parcel you sent me, which is always acceptable, and I can assure you my mates look forward to them as they cannot get ashore for anything. I mast also thank Aber. friends for their kind support of your fund and aiso your- self for the interest you are taking ill the fight- ing boys of Ai:;r. and the cheerlul cards you send us. Driver T. Rice, Egypt—The cigs. arrived in the nick of time thanks to you and the kind Aber. friends remembering us. Your htt-e card is appreciated and also I was glad to see in the "Cambrian News" of the probre-is of the Y.M.C.A. and I am sure they have grand con- certs in that institution a-s there are good singers in Aber. I hope to become a member of the Y.M.C.A., as 1 know the good work it is doing out hhe. Signaller Ambrose Lloyd, France—Just a few lines to inform you that 1 received your splendid parcel yesterday and it came at the right moment. As it happens it was biscuits for tea and as you know they are usually rather hard. I do not suppose I can teli much more than the papers about our stand at Givenchy on the 19th of April. First of all Fritz opened the bombardment with thousands of gas shells and added to that there was a very thick fog which enabled them practically to come on top of us without being seen. In fact a great many of our men were surrounded and were called on to surrender, but they actualiy made a dash and captured their captors. When the fog lifted and everybody could see what they were doing properly there was some very stiff fight- ing and the Germans had an awful cutting up as there was not many who managed to get back to their own lines as our machine gun- ners and trench mortars and also bombers were doing very fine work. The whole division were splendid and congratulation^ hfvo come from all over the country. Most of :1.. newspapers give the idea that they are ail Lancashire men in the 55th; but I believe there are as many Londoners, Scotchmen, and of course a good many Welshmen as usual. We were still in action when the other attack came off on the 18th, but we had been reinforced. I had the pleasure of meeting W. Jones, Gray's Inn-rd., and he looks well. I had not met an Aber. boy for months so we had several little chate together and were within ten yards of one another for about four days. i am still in the same place, Ibut hope to L-ve a little rest soon. I was wondering how Lieut. B. Taylor Lloyd got on as it was rather rough where he was. I have just seen in the "Cambrian News" that lie is wounded. I hope it is not serious and that he will soon be quite well again. I hope the suggestion about the Memorial Hall is tak- ing root and I do not think there is a better site than the Skating Rink suitable for it as it is one of the best spots in the town. You are doing splendid work and I trust you will be able to carry it on while the war lasts, and I hope that will not be long. Pte. E. R. Davies, France.—I received your nice parcel yesterday for which I thank you very much for. I thoroughly enjoyed the con- tents which were in very good cbndition. I was sorry to hear that so many Aber. boys are los- ing their lives and it is a pity that something cannot be done to bring this terrible war to an end. I hope you will be successful in ob- taining a Memorial Hall for the Y.M.C.A. at Aber. Bombardier J. D. Morgan, France—I received your parcel §afely a few days ago and my chums (together with me) send their best thanks for it. The parcel arrived at a most opportune time as we were on the move and therefore not able to get our usual "dishes" so needless to say we did full justice to the contents which we greatly enjoyed. Fritz is being gradually held up by now and it is no wonder when you realise what a number of casualties he bad., It was nothing but slaughter. Though he took a large portion of ground he paid most dearly for it. Our division has been mentioned in despatches again, this time for Leavy fighting on March 28th, when Fritz made repeated attacks against us, but was completely broken up by artillery fire. I came across an Aber. boy re- cently—George Humphreys. His battery had come alongside us during the night and I went to enquire of his whereabouts and he was quite surprised to see me. His division had also seen heavy fighting and had been mentioned in des- patches. I again thank Aber. friends for their continued interest in the welfare of the boys out here, hoping the day is not far off when we 8h11 he able to repay a little for the kind- ness. Drivf- J. Price, France—I have the great pleasure of once more thanking you and kind Aber. friends for the parcel T received yesterday in good condition. Thanks very much for the card. I was one of the lucky ones to get leave before it was stopped. I felt sorry for the lads who were recalled after going as far as the boats. Pte. W. Gurney, France-Vèry many thanks for the parcel I received in the line. I need hardly tell you how acceptable it was as we had been in the line fortv-one c'r ys at a stretch and as you know it has been a strenuous time for us all. I am now in hospital; but I may he removed down to the base in a short time. T may add that we had a pretty rough time of it. but up to now we have been able to hold Fritz despite all his efforts to push us back. I can hardly express my thanks to you and Aber. friends in words for the kindness towards us. Pte. M. 0. Davies, France-T am taking the opnortunitv of thanking you and the kind folks at'home for the most welcome parcel. It came shortly before tea and the cake went down Al, and a few of my pals said they wished they came from Aber. I thank you also for the card enclosed and will keep it carefully as I think a good deal of the kind words on them. I have had a lot to do lately and I think the Boche has paiu dearly for his so-called vic- >ories." You can put my name down as a member of the Y.M.C.A. I had the opportu- nity of .citing the rooms when home in Feb- ruary and thought them a credit to the town. Your idea cf a memorial to the fallen heroes of the town is a grand idea and I can suggest no better memorial. Pte J. Warrington, France--Your most wel- come and grand parcel and also the precious little card were received quite safely. You have a true verse on the little card. God has been very good to me and God will watch over you. We had been marching all day and when I arrived I found your grand parcel waiting and words fail to express my gratitude. I wish you and the Aber. people the best of luck and thank you for your good work. Pte. T. Glynne Thomas, France-I can hon- estly assure you that we boys appreciate all you arc doing for us and your messages are com- forting to us. I have quite a collection of the I little cards now and often read them. We have had a rough time this last fortnight and no I doubt you will be sorry to hear that Second- Lieut. Samuel, son of Mr. Samuel, Cambrian- street, was killed in action. He had been in this battalion a few months and was held in I great esteem by all. May God bless the good work you are doing. Lance-Corpl. R. Lloyd, France—Thank you so much for the parcel and also the card, which helps to cheer us up a great deal during these hard days. I daresay everyone at home has been feeling a bit downhearted lately, but all must cheer, up. There will be a. great turn in the tide soon. I wish you every success in your «ood work. Pte. W. Evans, France—The weather is very cold here, but the crops in the fields look well. I have been moving from place to place lately doing a. little bit here and there. Give my best regards to all my friends in old Aber. I Pte. W. Lewis, France-I received the parcel of tobacco and am very thankful to you and Aber. friends for their kindness. It was very acceptable as I lost everything T had in the re- j tirement. I was one of a dozen that held the Boches back until reinforcements arrived. All Boches back until reinforcements arrived. All

Harlech Officer.
Harlech Officer. Second-lieutenant R. WILLIAMS, M.G.C., Roslyn; died of wounds received on active ser- vice in France. Second-lieutenant R. Wijliams was one of the loremoet to answer the call to arms and '0' enlisted as a private early in September, 1914. with the R.W.F., and by his ability and con- stant cttention to duty was soon promoted quartermaster-sergeant and trained with his battalion at Aberystwyth and Bedford. His educational atttinmenir-marked him out for promotion and he obtained the King's com- mission as second-lieutenant and was posted te the Machine Gun Corps in July, 1917. He was drafted to France in October, 1917, where he saw active service only for a short period, and subse- quently proceeded to Italy where he saw hard fighting against the Austrians until March of this year. He often wrote interesting letters home from Italy giving vivid descriptions of his impressions of that beautiful country. When the great German offensive commenced on Western Front he was* brought back to France and within a few weeks was dangerously wounded. The first intimation his relatives had was a field card sent by himself simply stating that he was wounded, which caused his relatives great anxiety and suspense. Some days later the news of his death in hospital from wounds received in action was conveyed by wire from the War Office. The notification cast a gloom over the district where he was well known and held in high esteem as a young man of high; ideals and genial character. He was educated at Harmouth County School and before enlisting studied for his science degree at Bangor Univer- sity. His elder brother (Gunner Evan Williams, R.F.A.), who for many years acted as manager of a business establishment at Talybont, Car- diganshire, and was a great favourite in the place, is also on active service in France where he has been in the thick of it for over two years. The profound sympathy of a. wide district is extended to his widowed mother, brothers, and sisters, in their affliction and grIef.

Hugh Edwards was at the House, but his name is not in the division list^. Mr Haydn Jones and Mr Ellis Davies returned to North Wales earlier in the day. Later the official Liberal Whips endeavoured unsuccessfully to get a pair for Mr. Haydn Jones. Sir Eilis Griffith's name does not appear in the division lists. The does not appear in the division lists. The Government majority would have, been greater, but many members did not think the division I would have been taken until after dinner.
PENNY LETTERS TO THE FRONT.…
PENNY LETTERS TO THE FRONT. Letters from home to the front will not have to pay the new three-halfpenny rate, but may still be sent for a penny. This concession to public feeling was warmly welcomed when it was announced by the Postmaster General in the House of Commons. Mr. Illingworth said letters and parcels for troops abroad constitute a very heavy traffic. At certain seasons it re- quired as many as from three to five special trains a day. "We have had good evidence," lie said, "since the proposal was made that the troops would consider this increase a hardship. They appreciate correspondence from home more than anything else. After consultation with the Chancellor of the Exchequer, there- fore, it has been agreed to withdraw this pro- posal."

Aberystwyth Guardians.
Aberystwyth Guardians. INCREASED COUNTY CALLS. Aberystwyth Guardians met on Monday. Mr. Evan Morris taking the chair pro tem.-1hs. Doughton proposed the selection of Mr. John Morgan, Trinity-place, asohairmaii.Vr. J. R. Griffiths pointed out that it was the turn of the southern district to have the chair this year. Mr. E. J. Evans proposed the election of Capt. Llewellin, the vice-chairman. The Board would derive honour by his election.— Mr. Daniel Jenkins seconded the nomination, which was supported by several members, and Captain LleweMin was unanimously elected.-—Mr. J. R. Griffiths proposed the election of Mr. David Jones, Troedrhiwlwbai for the vice-chair.—The proposal was adopted unanimollsl,y.-The Yice- Chairman, on taking the chair, said he had not aspired to the honour paid him. He would, hdwever, endeavour to discharge the duties with the assistance of the Clerk. The Board then elected members to serve on the Assessment, Visiting, Finance, Vaccination, and Pauper Relatives, and Boarding-out Com- mittees. Leeds Board of Guardians circularised the Board against the recommendations of the Re- construction Committee.—Mr. Daniel Jenkins asked Inspector H. R. Williams for his view of the matter.—Mr. H. R. Williams said his first duty was to congratulate the new Chairman. Turning to the other matter, he reminded the Board that lie was a paid official and therefore felt reluctant to obtrude his views. He could say, however, that he felt it was regrettable that the public outside were not better informed as to the great work and time spent by guard- ians in the work of providing for "widows, orphans, and helpless people. Though the Guardians met regularly the public was far from realising the value of the work done.—Mr J. R. Griffiths said the Board had adopted a unanimous vote against, the proposal.—Mr. E. J. Evans said though the Inspector declined to take sides, yet he had said enough to lead them to believe that he was not indifferent to the services of the boards.—The matter was referred to the House Committee. Mr. Daniel Jenkins brought forward the re- port of the Committee on the requests of the officials for an increase in salaries. The Com- mittee recommended that the relieving officers should be granted an increase of 7s. each, the Master and Matron 5s. each, and the Gardener 3s. per week.-Mr. John Morgan, Brynymor, asked why the Committee differentiated so widely ?-*Mr. Daniel Jenkins replied that the Committee went into the cases on their merits and were unanimous.—The report. was adopted. The Chairman welcomed Mr. R. T. Griffiths, Talybont. on his first appearance.-Mr. Griffiths thanked the Board. Dealing with a case reported by the Relieving Officer, the Inspector said there was much to be said for the appointment of a female assistant relieving officer. There was essentially work that a Gvoman official could do mor6 effectively than a man. Mr J. R. Griffiths, in proposing the adoption oi the estimates, said the increase in the county call was £ 2,084. He felt that the Board should make a strong protest against the continued in- creases. He did not cavil at the increases caused by the war bonus granted to workmen. Neither did he object to the increase for education. The continued increases, however, on small holdings and the roads, which were cut. to bits by timber traffic contractors, were serious items.—The Board approved of the protest, Mr. Daniel Jenkins remarking that they hoped to saddle the timber contractors with the amount of damage done to the roads. On the proposition of Mr. Daniel Jenkins, the Board increased its contribution to (he Aber- ystwyth District Nursing Association from B10 to £ 15; AberysttVvyth ffnfirmary, P,10 10s.; Manchester Eye Hospital and National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, to ) P-3 3s. each.
